Trump is still defending hmself against the claims of his racial misconduct. Calling the person making the claims rude names. To me it just makes Trump look more guilty.

The trial of Trumps ex campaign manager is going to the jury tomorrow. Time will tell what the jury decides. There are over30 charges to vote on.

President Trump signed a defense bill that had Senator John Mc cains name on it. Yet Trump refused to even mention his name, or give him credit for his defense of our country. Why? becausemc cain wouldn't give Trump a vote that would have destroyed the ACA. Just more proof of how petty Trump is. Just like a little rich kid that doesn't get his way. I find it hard to understand why anyone would support a man who acts like a schoolyardbully. A spoiled one at that.

The GOP continues trying to discredit the FBI. To discredit the special counsels report on Trumps coverup and connection to the Russian government.

We depend on congress to hold the President accountable for any wrong doing. Yet the GOP controlled congress refuses to do it's job in this matter. Instead they are working to protect the president, no matter what he does.

If Trump is allowed to continue his conduct, his supporters as well as the public will suffer the consequences. Already there are signs the economy is slowing down. Income for some workers has improved, but not generally. Thousands have lost their jobs due to Trumps trade policies and thousands more will likely loose their jobs in the future. The free ride of an improving economy given to the GOP and Trump by Obama is ending.

Inflation is out running any wage increases this year. The average tax savings due to the GOP tax cut for the avergae wage earner is $68. For upper middle class it's about $1000. For the top wage earners it's about $60,000 in average tax savings. Tax savings by big business has largely went to stock buy backs instead of increased wages for their workers. Remember the trickle down claim by the GOP? Well there it is. Tax saving isn't going to most workers in wage increases. Big business isn't even puting the money into their infrastructure.

Had a dream my sister was dragging dead bodies out of a house. I told her it was illegal to disturb a crime scene, and she freak out, and then she said something like

"We'll ask mom. She's taking a nap in the back."

Suddenly the house became the first house I lived in as a child, and I realized that the bodies might not have been due to a crime, but an accident, and that they simply died in their sleep because they ran out of air. I chased after my sister as she ran into the house, telling her not to go in alone, but she was already in, shaking my mom trying to wake her up. Inside the house smelt strongly like natural gas. Mom had a very hard time waking up, so I picked her up and carried her outside where she quickly recuperated. We were about to tell her that she had almost died when she looked at us and "Go away!" and ran back into the house. I followed (of course) and saw her turning off a couple of burners on the stove that were open but not lit. Then I woke up (thankfully).

President Trump continue to bad mouth the only black person that worked in the west wing of the white house. If she was to bad why did he hire her? Seems people only have to brag on Trump to be hired to work in the government. But if they don't stay loyal he is ready to get rid of them even if they want to follow the law. Trump wants everyone to bow and scrape at his feet. He can't stand for anyone to say anything bad about him.

As always president Trump can't let anything go. He has to talk and tweet for days and days about anything that he doesn't like. Or about anyone who makes him look bad. Seems he is afraid if he doesn't defend himself people might believe them. All this does give those he is complaining about credibility. Keeps it in the news day after day. If he didn't want it in the news he should ignore such attacks.

His complaints about the special counsel makes it look like he is worried about what they might find. There again he should ignore it. His supporters will follow his lead no matter what.

Trump complains about national security yet if he was just a citizen he couldn't pass security to work in the kitchen of the white house, much less the oval office. We can only wonder what secrets he has revealed to foreign leaders and our enemies. He constantly brags and boasts about his election and how smart he is. A smart man keeps his mouth shut. Trump can't keep his mouth shut. It could be a habit he got from being a salesman. If so he needs to break it.

Trumps attorneys don't want him to have an interview with the special counsel. They call it a perjury trap. They say Trump isn't smart enough to avoid being caught in a lie. Even a little 5 year old kid knows when he or she is telling a lie. Makes one wonder how Trump handles really smart leaders if he is so gullible. I really doubt Trump was able to bully either Russia's Putin or the N Korean leader. Instead they likely bullied him. Trump acts brave when he is in front of his fans, but hasn't the nerve to even personally fire anyone. he was only an actor when he fire people on his tv show.

There is a book out by one of Trumps ex staff that claims Trump used racial statements during the production of his TV show Apprentice, and in the white house. I won't repeat them, but if you check link to Msnbc you can find out. Of course Trump and his friends call it a lie. Well Trump and his friends lie all the time, so if there is a tape of it we will know for sure. Yet when Trump declared he was running for president he called Mexican immigrants rapists and thieves.

With this person gone from the white house, there is only one black person in his cabinet and none in the west wing staff, and he is treated like a token black each time Trump wants to prove he isn't a racist, with him in tow.

I've learned the problem my Marshall Valvestate guitar amp has is fixable! And it's an easy fix. So easy I'll be able to do it myself. I was considering buying a new amp. So here's what i've been dealing with. From the start this amp hums. And it gets really loud if I try to use the reverb. The problem? A design fault from Marshall. The put the reverb tank right next to the power amp. The electro magnetic field from the power amp is interfering with the reverb unit. Usually you would find these large spring reverb units in the speaker cabinets of combo amps. So all I have to do is take it from where it is and relocate it. Looking forward to finally having a humless amp.

Sometimes, it pays to be in the right place at the right time. I wasn't planning to go to my local library today, but I made a quick stop just for the hell of it to see what new DVD's were available to check out. Also took a quick look at the "For Sale" section where the library sells off old, used, and/or donated books, music, and DVD's. And what did I happen to find for sale? The complete Season 1 of Game of Thrones on Blu-Ray! Normally, I'm not a GoT fan/watcher as I never got into the series years ago. But my curiosity got the better of me and I decided to purchase the 5-disc Blu-Ray set.......for $1.00! Yep, you read that right. $1! And the complete set is in very good condition too.

oh man! That is awesome. I'm not a fan myself but that is a great find.
